Administrator Authentication - Ricoh Aficio MP161F Operating Instructions Manual

Authentication and its Application

Administrator Authentication

Administrators are handled differently from the users registered in the address
book. When registering an administrator, you cannot use a login user name al-
ready registered in the address book. Windows Authentication, LDAP Authen-
tication and Integration Server Authentication are not performed for an
administrator, so an administrator can log on even if the server is unreachable
2
due to a network problem.
Each administrator is identified by a login user name. One person can act as
more than one type of administrator if multiple administrator authority is grant-
ed to a single login user name.
You can specify the login user name, login password, and encryption password
for each administrator.
The encryption password is a password for performing encryption when speci-
fying settings using Web Image Monitor or SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin.
The password registered in the machine must be entered when using applica-
tions such as SmartDeviceMonitor for Admin.
Administrators are limited to managing the machine's settings and controlling user ac-
cess. so they cannot use functions such as copying and printing. To use such functions,
you need to register a user in the address book and then be authenticated as the user.
Note
❒ Administrator authentication can also be specified via Web Image Monitor.
For details see the Web Image Monitor Help.
